NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS — (Continued)
In the three months ended March 31, 2007, we paid
$99.6 million to enter into a structured equity hedging
transaction that matured on March 30, 2007. According to
the terms of the transaction, on the maturity date, if the
market price of our common stock exceeded a pre-determined
price, we had the option to settle the transaction in cash or
shares of our common stock. On the maturity date, based on the
market price of our stock, we chose to settle for
$102.3 million in cash for settlement of the transaction.
The premium of approximately $2.7 million was recorded as
additional paid-in capital.
